Wow! Great attention was given to all the details! We were greeted with complimentary notecards with architectural artwork and custom bottled water when entering our room. Our little one loved being able to view cartoons on the bathroom mirror from the bathtub. The mini history museum, gift shop, and dining options were also delightfully convenient amenities without having to leave the property. Can’t wait to return in the future!

The Jefferson Hotel is hands down our favorite. We drove 3-1/2 hours each way to celebrate our anniversary there. Of course the two shows we took in and the excellent restaurants in town as well as museums make it worth the trip. But the on-site parking and complementary shuttle service to theaters are a nice touch.
The staff is consistently friendly and helpful. We stay at the Jefferson a couple of times a year. This morning as we were departing the concierge came out from behind her desk to give my wife a big hug. She asked how our grands are doing and gave us a couple of waters for the road.

Our stay at The Jefferson in Richmond was simply wonderful. From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The hotel amenities are exceptional, the atmosphere is elegant and welcoming, and the attention to detail truly stands out.
The restaurant was outstanding, and breakfast was absolutely delicious — one of the highlights of our stay. Every detail contributed to an unforgettable experience. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay and would absolutely return.
